Erase picture question pops up constantly and won't go away!

\015 While trying to shoot, or trying to do any function, the erase picture comes up and won't go away. I've browsed everything on the menu and mode but can not find a solution. Please help!\015

Answers :

I recommend taking the back cover off, and getting under the buttons with a lint-less cloth, and swab it off with a dab of alcohol. It could be that a button is stuck. Of course, I would check all of the settings first to see if there is something to fix it there.

The problem is\015\0121- some dirt somehow got on the outside of the lense. After it was retracted fully in, it prevents the camera from opening again. When you turn it on, if it opens a little bit, try to pull it out NOT too hard and let go ...

My questions is If I still have my pictures there or are erase, Help please

The problem is simple in nature but may turn out to be more complex than we like to think of it. Normally the pictures should have been saved to the memory card and furthermore they should still be there. However, in this case, if the camera asks ...

My nikon d60 wont take picture when the flash is activated. the flash wont fire too but would pop up. if flash is deactivated, i could take pictures with it.

I dropped my Canon Elph 300 Full HD HS and now the focus picture thing is sucked in and wont pop back out

When I insert my memory card into my printer, all that pops up is "Memory Card Error." I really want to get my pictures off of the memomry card and into my computer, so this is getting pretty frustrating. I was going to reformat the card in the camera, but that will apparently erase all the pictures from the card. I had taken this memory card to Walgreens last summer and gotten pictures off of it, so I don't understand why it won't work now.
It's a 4GB Kodak memory card... If you could h

Yesterday my card was working fine, it kept telling me that my card was full so i just deleted older pictures.. Now i'm trying to upload pictures and it is telling me i need to format my card but that will delete all of my pictures.. It wont even let me view them.. Is there any way for them to not be erased?

Yesterday, did you use the computer to delete the older pictures? Don't ever do that. For now, you can use a card reader to download your pictures to your computer. After they are safely downloaded, format the card in the camera and don't let it get ...

I accidentally pressed the formatting button on my digital camera, canon powershot SD790 IS. Not knowing it erases all pictures. My question is can i get my pictures back, and if so how?

The answer is it depends on whether or not you conducted a "low level" format or not. Such a format will actually write over the card making photo recovery unlikely. But with Canon cameras, format is normally a quick erase (which is recoverable), U ...
